About the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920
The AirTAC SC100X920 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 100 mm bore and a long 920 mm stroke, it features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 ports for robust pneumatic connections.
This cylinder has a body length A of 188 mm, resulting in an extended length of approximately 1108 mm. The adjustable pneumatic cushion, with a 29 mm cushion length, decelerates the piston smoothly at each end of the stroke, reducing impact and noise. Its TPU seals provide a standard operating temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920 Is Used
Palletizer Pushers
The 920 mm stroke and 3927 N force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for pushing full layers of boxes or bags onto a pallet in end-of-line packaging systems.
Long-Stroke Diverter Gates
Actuates a diverter gate across a wide conveyor section, reliably sorting heavy parcels or bulk materials with the cylinder's high thrust capacity.
Heavy Panel Transfer
Moves large wooden or composite panels between processing stations, where the 920 mm reach and powerful push force handle substantial workpiece masses.
Is the Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920 the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC100X920 for applications needing the high force of a 100 mm bore with a near-maximum standard stroke. If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to an 80 mm bore (2513 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption. For even greater force, the 125 mm bore model provides 6136 N at 0.5 MPa.
At this 920 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is susceptible to bending under side loads. You must use an external linear guide or rod support to prevent bearing damage and ensure reliable operation. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 920 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and the absence of a magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC100 Standard Cylinder SC100X920 FAQ
The theoretical push force on the piston rod is 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. The pull force on retraction is slightly lower at 3681 N (0.5 MPa) due to the rod area.
A long, unsupported stroke on a 25 mm rod is vulnerable to side loads. You must guide the load externally with a linear rail or rod support. The cylinder's rod bearing is designed for axial thrust, not to absorb lateral forces, which can cause premature seal wear and rod damage.
